# Jpeg2kFrame Class
 
This class represents a frame of the JPEG2000 format.
 
**Namespace:** [Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/N_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Codecs.htm.md)
 **Assembly:** Aurigma.GraphicsMill (in Aurigma.GraphicsMill.dll)
 
## Syntax
  
```
Public NotInheritable Class Jpeg2kFrame _Inherits Frame
```
 
```csharp
public sealed class Jpeg2kFrame : Frame
```
 
## Examples
  
You can use [Jpeg2kWriter](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Codecs_Jpeg2kWriter.htm.md) class instead of the [Save(String, IEncoderOptions)](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Bitmap_Save_2_b73a8298.htm.md) method of the [Bitmap](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Bitmap.htm.md). In particular it enables you to save the image asynchronously.
 
The [Jpeg2kWriter](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Codecs_Jpeg2kWriter.htm.md) class usage is demonstrated below:
 
```
Dim bitmap As New Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap("c:\Mountain.jpg")

Dim writer As New Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.Jpeg2kWriter("C:\Mountain2.jp2")

Dim frame As New Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.Jpeg2kFrame
frame.Rate = 0.1
frame.SetBitmap(bitmap)

bitmap.Dispose()

writer.AddFrame(frame)

frame.Dispose()

writer.Dispose()
```
 
```csharp
using (Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap bitmap = 
            new Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap(@"c:\Mountain.jpg"))
{
    using (Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.Jpeg2kWriter writer = 
        new Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.Jpeg2kWriter())
    {
        writer.Open(@"C:\Mountain2.jp2");

        using (Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.Jpeg2kFrame frame = 
                    new Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.Jpeg2kFrame())
        {
            frame.Rate = 0.1f;
            frame.SetBitmap(bitmap);

            writer.AddFrame(frame);
        }
    }
}
```
